Ten Cast-Iron & Wood Falcon-Embellished Benches Designed by Architect Alfred Kock Clausen were Positioned Symmetrically on Saint Thomas Square, Frederiksberg in 1927

Five on one side and five on the other, the elegant and unique benches may have been inspired by a similar bench at Kongens Nytorv, designed by G.F. Hetsch.

The benches are showing signs of wear and tear after 90 years of service.

The untold layers of classic green Frederiksberg paint result in a crude caricature of the magnificent originals, one of which has been fully restored to its Persian mountain red and graphite grey cast iron components and is displayed in the foyer of Frederiksberg Town Hall.

The Mayor of Frederiksberg poses on the bench at the town hall. Original paving included.
